Abstract: IntroductionCross-sectional studies consistently find that the neighborhood built environment (e.g., walkability) is associated with walking. However, findings from the few existing longitudinal residential relocation studies that have estimated associ...
Confirmation that eagle fatalities can be reduced by automated curtailment of wind turbines
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Vol 3, Iss 3, Pp n/a-n/a (2022)
Abstract: Abstract Automated curtailment is potentially a powerful technique to reduce collision mortality of wildlife with wind turbines. Previously, we used a before–after–control–impact framework to demonstrate that eagle fatalities declined after automated c...
